Five Ways to Wellbeing

27 Feb 2024

It’s never too late to give your family’s wellbeing a high priority. The ‘Five Ways to Wellbeing’ will help you to develop a wellbeing plan for your family.

Talk about your plan as a family, and schedule it into your family recreation time. How will your family connect, be active, take notice, keep learning and give back?

Using the Five Ways to Wellbeing with your family

Connect

have a regular family dinner and encourage your child to invite a friend
participate in school activities or events to meet other school families
organise a weekly family board game
plan inside or outside games where everyone can have fun together
make time for important people in your life.

Be active

walk, ride, jog or swim together before or after school
play sport together
go hiking
go camping
go for a bush walk
explore your neighbourhood.

Take notice

encourage your child to think of three things they are grateful for each day
teach your child how to meditate
teach your child to notice things or people that make them happy.

Keep learning

take up a new hobby as a family and learn together
get your child to teach you the language they are learning at school
travel and learn about different cultures and places
learn about the history of your community
find out about your family history.

Give

give your time as a family to a cause that is important to you
help at school events
support elderly neighbours
volunteer at a community event
challenge everyone in the family to do something kind for someone else.

Digital Lunchbreak

The Office of the Advocate for Children and Young People (ACYP) has designed the Digital Lunchbreak website to assist children and young people with finding online resources and activities to do at home in their lunchbreak, around learning hours and on weekends.
